CuGino - Lafayette
Bart Bellaire Worth the wait!!! Took us a week or so to get a reservation and the food is absolutely amazing. These people are passionate about Italian food and their service is top notch. My wife and I started with the burrata salad and it was very well done. Do not be afraid of the beets it’s really an extremely appetizing combination. Well balanced dish with great flavor. For entree’s we had the pork cheek and the veal Norma and a side of broccolini. Two outstanding dishes! The pork is cooked perfectly and the ragu with the polenta is a wonderful combination. As for the veal it was cooked perfectly and the sauce served with it with the eggplant in it is rich and hearty. Both very satisfying dishes. They have a nice wine list and great cocktails from the bar. If you haven’t gone you should … this place is an absolute hit. We are fortunate to have rustic yet refined Italian like this in Lafayette. Gene and Hunter have created something very special.
